    Third time harms...

    Daniel Bernhardt returns as Alex Cardo as he tells in flashback to his son, how his mentor James Hong was killed, how he wins the kumite against "The Beast" who is a titan and along the way discusses how he met the lad's mother. Also on how the kid's grandfather was a no good scumbag, in other words it is Bloodsport for a younger generation. Bloodsport II wasn't exactly great (In fact far from good) but when compared to this boring dud of a sequel, it almost feels as if you can sense how bored the movie is with itself. The fight sequences this time are terribly staged, with martial artistry so sloppy, you'd swear you walked in on a drunken fight. The movie starts off reasonably well enough but once the training montage begins, you'll be so bored that your only excitement in the fight sequences, will be getting closer to the ending. The movie is just so lame. Also the singing in which Amber van Lynt does, is quite positively more damaging to the human body, then any harm "The Beast" inflicts. (I'm not sure if i'm the first to bring that up, but how nobody remembers such awful singing is mind boggling.)

    pure crap.

    I saw Bloodsport, sadly one of Van Damme's best films, and could say it wasn't all that stupid. Number 2 was far more entertaining, mostly because they cast Daniel Bernhardt as the lead, (a basically taller, better acting, better looking and better fighting version of JCVD). Now comes lucky number 3. For the love of your sanity, don't see this movie! Don't touch this piece of maggot-infested crap! I lost an hour of my life that i'll never get back (thats how much of it I stomached before I tossed it out the window). If you feel the need to see a film that so bad that it actually entertains you, go see "Cool As Ice". Bloodsport 3, however, is not one of those films.

    Slowly goes down to s***

    There isn't much to say about this film, except that slowly goes down... This is just one of those bad martial arts films... with classic story about Alex Cardo who's taking a revenge upon a rich mobster and his "monster" fighter called the Beast. Again with Daniel Bernhardt in leading role and his Van Damme face expressions. He travels on Thailand to another master to train him for next Kumite. But, this time... it IS personal! We get to see John Rhys Davies as the leading bad guy, the mobster, who is doing nothing but walking around with a large cigar in his mouth and look menacing, just like in "Cyborg Cop", James Hong and Pat Morita are there again... The fights are good, no complaints there... This is strictly for martial arts fans.

    no point in this film

    when i watched the first two bloodsport films i thought that they were pretty good (especially the first film). and then when they made a third one i immedietly rented it at the local movie store and was dissapointed in how stupid this film was. the action seens werent too bad, but the storyline was completely messed... if you ask me, there was no point in making this film. I rank it a *** out of **********.

    Awful movie

    Not interesting at all, plot is also bad. Bloodsport I was okay, II was kinda watchable, but III and IV are terrible! Poor acting, poor fighting scenes... This movie is one of those movies where you want to leave the cinema although you paid to watch it. Of course I didn't watch it in the cinema, but I was like "dear God, will it end already". You get bored watching it, you know the ending, there are no surprising parts, twists, nothing. I give it 5/10 while being very very generous! It's better than Bloodsport IV, but hey, that's not so hard since IV is one of the worst movies ever made! It would be better for director if he hadn't made sequels after first Bloodsport movie with van Damme. I'm really disappointed.
